We had a large party with us. The service was ok as the boy was doing his best and messed up on 4 of the 10 orders. The food was not good. The salads were swimming in dressing and an extremely amount of dressing. I am a feta cheese lover but could not eat most of my salad due to... More

Was staying overnight in the area and the hotel recommended this place. We were there late on a weeknight and loved it. My wife and I split a meal and had a drink. The wedge salad was excellent as was the flatbread pizza. I know it was close to closing time, but the whole staff was very friendly and we... More

My wife and I use to go all the time, but our last visit the waitress forgot my salad and refused to take it off the price! She said we could get it to go only. No exceptions! we were disappointed. We get better service at Macdonalds. The food was good as always, but the salad the next day sucked... More

Attended a private birthday party and the staff was very accomodating and the food was good. Moderately priced menu items, clean restaurant. The lasagna was delicious!

Great Southern Comfort food, paired with Italian speciaities and fabulous steaks. Appetizers to die for- try the Fried Green Tomatoes-w/ cheese grits and two kinds of gravy ( their signature appetizer) or the fried asparagus. They have ntree salad, burgers, sandwiches and seafood as well. Covers all tastes. Nice ambiance and very attentive service.

Let me start by stating that his review is for the Puleo's on Morrel road across from the West town Mall. We were staying one night in the area and wanted to try something new to us and after reading the menu and finding that is a local owned chain we decided to give it a try. The restaurant was... More

This was very close to the crummy hotel I was staying at so that's why I chose it. I was pleasantly surprised by their options and found the food to be very good. They offered delivery to the hotel that initially I was going to utilize until I saw they required a $15 minimum order, $2.50 service charge, +20% tip... More

Puleo's is a well-liked place in Knoxville. They have a good variety of foods on their menu -- some good Italian food and some southern comfort foods, too. Their salads are real good and their bread is fresh and tasty. Their lasagna is not my favorite lasagna so I usually order something else. I do like their Chicken Parmesan. The... More

The menu at Puleo's is great, but only if you can tolerate msg. I can't, so I had to go for the grilled options and vegetables. My meal was excellent, and I was there with a large group. Service was attentive without being on top of you. Very nice experience.
